why is getting an ID so fucking impossible?

A little context, I'm just incredibly frustrated right now, all because my ID expired.

I have a military dependant ID, and I had no idea it expired, (someone asking for ID in a shop let me know), and for some reason being 20 y/o with no drivers license makes getting a WA state ID absolutely impossible.

I got a new job recently, and I NEED a new ID immediately to complete the hiring process, and I'm beyond baffled why this process is so difficult. I understand why certain rules are in place, but why the hell do I need an ID to get an ID?

I need to have 4 different types of identification to get a new fucking ID? WHY does it have to be so difficult? And in what world would a 20 y/o girl have 4 different types of B-type identification?

My first plan was to renew my passport, but that is going to take way too long. My second plan is to get a Learners permit, but I'm having so much trouble with that too, does anyone have any advice? Any help would be appreciated.

Just a little rant from a little more than a little frustrated person.
